Dubai (May 17, 2017) At Acer’s next@acer global press conference in New York recently, the company unveiled the powerful and thin Predator Triton 700 gaming notebook. The notebook’s svelte 18.9 mm (.74 inch), 2.6kg (5.7 pound) aluminum chassis houses a 15.6-inch FHD IPS display and best-in-class computing technologies, striking just the right balance of size and performance without sacrificing thermals, features or rigidity.

As the first of the new ultrathin Predator Triton gaming notebook series, its understated black chassis features a minimalist design, with straight contours and angular front corners. A large glass plate above the keyboard serves as a window into the notebook’s cooling system, showcasing the AeroBlade™ 3D Fan and five heat pipes, and also functions as a Precision Touchpad. 

Powering the beast within is a standard-voltage 7th Gen Intel® Core™ processor, latest high-performance NVIDIA® GeForce® 10-Series graphics, two NVMe PCIe  SSDs in RAID 0 configuration and up to 32GB of DDR4 2400MHz memory.  

For a truly immersive gaming experience, the VR-ready Predator Triton 700 offers bright, vibrant visuals on a 15.6-inch FHD IPS display with NVIDIA® G-SYNC™ support for connecting to an external monitor.  Dolby Audio™ Premium and Acer TrueHarmony™ deliver immersive audio with crisp, rich acoustics.  Skype for Business Certification ensures conversations are clear and lag-free.

Rounding out the notebook’s powerful features are Killer DoubleShot Pro networking and Thunderbolt™ 3 connectivity, which provides speeds up to 40 Gbps and supports dual 4K video output. The Predator Triton 700 also includes two USB 3.0 ports (featuring power-off USB charging), one USB 2.0 port, an HDMI 2.0 port, one DisplayPort connector and a Gigabit Ethernet port for those preferring a hard-wired connection. Networking is powered by Killer DoubleShot™ Pro technology, which picks the fastest network connection (Ethernet or Wireless) and sends all high priority traffic over that interface, while standard traffic is sent over the other.

Of course, no gaming notebook is complete without a mechanical keyboard, which delivers a satisfying typing experience and fast, accurate response times. The keys are RGB backlit and can be individually programmed.

PredatorSense software enables gamers to control and customize the Predator Triton 700’s vitals from one central interface, including lighting, hotkeys, fan control and general system monitoring.

The Triton’s dual fan system is powered by Acer’s proprietary AeroBlade™ 3D Fans with ultra-thin metal blades to keep the device running nice and cool, even when the action heats up.
